Giuliani said he personally attended at least 10 funerals following the 9/11 attack for men and women from the neighborhood. The FAA is looking into the possibility of a phenomenon called wake turbulence as a contributing cause. Wake turbulence is caused when one jet flies too close to another, creating a shake so bad it can cause parts to break or a pilot to lose control. Might 587 was the required two miles behind the next closest plane when it crashed, though investigators say wind speed and direction can alter the path of the turbulence. "We haven't ruled anything in," said White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer, "and we haven't ruled anything out." The good news? There is some of it. Preliminary reports all point to mechanical failure rather than another terrorist attack. The Federal Aviation Administration is looking in to several concurrent eyewitness reports stating that parts of the French built A-300 Airbus were falling off prior to a steep nosedive. They have recovered the cockpit voice recorder and all transmissions point to a mechanical failure. There were no sounds concurrent with an explosion. Though there was no evidence of foul play, authorities have not eliminated any possibility.
